Hi, i have a Bold 9000 associated to a BES server via provider Proximus in Belgium.

When i start the Maps application i receive my GPS position but without any maps displayed.

So the GPS is working but no maps are downloaded.

Any idea how to make this work ?

Not sure if this is your problem

I had a BB Storm 1. There was a problem with the maps as you describe after a operating system update. I could see the location pin and a grid but no maps under them. It was even a problem on brand new phones. I spent hours on the phone with RIM to no avail.

I solved the problem myself by simply restoring only the map settings and map location files from previous backup files on from a different phone.

I have the same issue on my 9700 running .593. I tried a delete and reload but that didn't fix it. I may downgrade to .586 and see if that fixes it. In my event log I get a "S Java Exception - OutofMemoryError".

Really struggling with this one. If I wipe my 9700 and downgrade to the official .330 (T-Mobile) bbmaps works fine. If I upgrade to .593 straight or wipe and load .593 bbmaps doesn't work - the program loads but the maps never load. The screen shows 0KB in the upper right and the event log shows an "OutOfMemoryError".

Would love to have some advice - I've never had a problem like this one ....

Continuing to try to fix my issue. I did a "resettofactory" and removed my IT policy. After that bbmaps worked. I did an enterprise activation and now have a "maplet request error" in my event log. Specifically -

Nope. Still not working for me. My company is not blocking BBMaps and Google Maps, Bing and Waze all work fine. I keep poking at it and searching but am basically stumped on this one. My wild guess is some setting is messed up and being saved on the BES. If I reload my OS BBMaps will work until I do an enterprise activation and restore my settings/data. Unfortunately without more of a clue I can't be sure that's it and I can't try and get a hold of my BES admin and get it "fixed".

Alright. It appears that something in my profile saved on the BES is causing my problem. Other people in my company can use bbmaps successfully. I did a complete device wipe and removed the IT policy for good measure. bbmaps works fine. After enterprise activation bbmaps fails with an "out of memory error" in the event log.

I would appreciate it if someone could help me ask the right question of my BES admin.
